Updating previous reports, Buffalo Bills DT Marcell Dareus' discussed contract extension is still a priority for Buffalo's front office, and they hope to have an agreement in place before training camp. Dareus will miss Week 1 after a suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy.

Buffalo Bills DT Marcell Dareus reached a plea agreement to have misdemeanor charges dropped for crashing his car into a tree near a Buffalo intersection last year. He pleaded guilty to failure to keep right and imprudent speed Tuesday, April 7. Dareus was given the maximum fine of $150 for each violation. The NFL is expected to review his plea agreement, and they could still punish him with a fine, suspension or both.

Buffalo Bills DT Marcell Dareus is due to receive a contract extension "in the near future," according to general manager Doug Whaley. "He will be priority No. 1 once the dust settles post draft, maybe even before then, just to get the ball rolling," Whaley said. Dareus has a year left on his rookie contract from 2011, and the Bills already picked up his fifth-year option for $8.06 million. Dareus finished 2014 with a career-high 10 sacks and has gone to the Pro Bowl each of the last two years. An extension for Dareus will likely include plenty of guaranteed money.
